She Rises with Hope - Tina Vajpeyi
She rises each morning to the call of her mother A woman who dreams for and empowers her Who clothes and feeds her She rises at school to the voice of her teacher A woman who moulds and emboldens her Who informs and instructs her She rises at the office to the orders of her senior A woman who tasks and trains her Who enlightens her and develops her She rises in the evening to the chatter of her family Women who share with and care with her Who cook and who clean with her She rises in the night to the touch of her husband A man who demands from and dares her Who cares for and loves her She rises in hope that each day she will hear Of women living more equally and happily than her Women living with hope and not fear
